Gov. Jay Nixon, First Lady Georganne Nixon and State Parks Director Bill Bryan cut the ribbon to open an 11-mile portion of Missouri's Katy Trail State Park from St. Charles east to Machens. In opening the final section of the trail along the original Katy Railroad corridor, the ceremony at DuSable Park in St. Charles marked a major milestone for the nation's longest developed rail-trail project, which opened the first section of the trail in 1990. The entire trail now stretches 240 miles from Machens to Clinton, in west-central Missouri.
